At “such a time as this,” every moment counts... especially during the formative years of high school. With so many beneficial opportunities available, homeschooling parents need to be very wise in designing their students’ high school curriculum track. The challenge can be daunting. The problem is not that there is a shortage of choices, but, rather, that there is an over-abundance of good choices! Dr. James Stobaugh shows how to plan an educational curriculum that will make this time of life fruitful and productive for your high schoolers.

Doing well on the SAT can open doors of opportunity that will enable our children to become world changers for Christ. In light of the changes introduced in the 2005 SAT I, this workshop is especially relevant. James Stobaugh, an official Collegeboard grader, will share specific insights concerning the essay portion of the SAT I.

The ability to write is a valuable tool to help your children express their beliefs in any venue God calls them to. For young people preparing to be 21st century apologists, a strong education in composition is especially crucial.

In this informative webinar, Dr. James Stobaugh overviews appropriate writing goals and objectives from pre-K to college. Learn to balance teaching writing skills with nurturing the heart to develop a capable student, ready and able to articulate with eloquence.

C. S. Lewis, considered the greatest apologist of the 20th century, was not a theologian—he was primarily a classicist, a student of literature. Dr. James Stobaugh shares his belief that the next “C. S. Lewis” God will call forth will emerge from a community that understands, analyzes, and appreciates truly great literature.

In this stimulating webinar, Dr. Stobaugh will specifically address the importance of learning how to analyze literature for effective college preparation and for the establishment of a firm apologetics foundation.
